That's the weird part - they're not prevalent on either the center or the outside. Imagine taking a roll of 1-1/2" masking tape and wrapping it around the tire evenly spaced about 1-1/2" apart - that's what it looks like.

When first wiped them off and looked, I saw a the rough on the edge of the tire, that stopped an inch or so in. I thought - oops - a bit too soft. Then I looked closer, and there is another strip of rough a ways inside that, then a smooth strip, then a rough strip...

Stop driving on rail-road tracks comes to mind!! Did you do a burnout over diamond plate? LOL

It is a weird one, but I would try dropping the air pressue a pound or 2 and see what happens.

You mean I wasn't supposed to burn across the drain grating?

I just talked to M&H. They said everything is perfectly normal. He says give them a few more runs to get broken in.

Perry, might just be because they are a little harder and require more passes. JMO.

[jim sanders]

i was thinking wheelspeed on the burnouts ?

[greenracing]

wheelspeed?

5000 in high gear until you can't see the tach anymore...

[Lippy]

Sounds about right. Good answer Perry.

If it hooks that good on half a tire, think what's gonna happen on the full surface of the tire,??

I spent my holiday weekend in the garage hacking off the back of my frame. Welded a new cross-member up where the frame starts looping up over the rear end. Cut off the frame behind the new member. Boxed the end of the frame. Made a new chute harness mount off of the new member that runs out through the back of the body. Remounted the chute pack on the back of the body - it's actually at the same angle and height that it was, but much cleaner looking.

Now I've got 4-5 inches of clearance on the bars. All the more room to wrap them up and stand the little bugger on its hiney.

Once I burn all of the lumps off my new tires, no tellin what's going to happen.

[draglist]

We wanna see you stand that little bugger up on its hiney! bp

[greenracing]

yeah yeah yeah....


I'll have to see if I can get some pics this weekend. I'd like a video so that I can see what it's really doing - then again - maybe I don't really want to see what it's really doing....

Maybe I'll just give one of the kids my camera phone - the quality won't be that great, but it might not be too bad since it will be plenty bright enough.
